RMSEP {chillR}

Root Mean Square Error of Prediction (RMSEP)

Description

This function computes the Root Mean Square Error of Prediction (RMSEP), a commonly used measure for the predictive capacity of a model. It compares values predicted with a model with observed values.

Usage

RMSEP(predicted, observed, na.rm = FALSE)

Arguments

predicted

a numeric vector containing predicted values.

observed

a numeric vector of the same length as “'predicted“' containing observed values.

na.rm

Boolean parameter indicating whether NA values should be removed before the analysis

Value

numeric value of the RMSEP.
